6/26/26 - Alphabet Challenge (E for Embossing) - Fern & Floral Bundle with Vellum

Happy Friday and today at Alphabet Challenge we have E for Embossing! I dry embossed on a piece of vellum to give it a subtle background. The big image fern is colored with Watercolor Pencil with Blender Pens. To finish I added the flowers and the 2026-2028 In-Colors butterfly! I really enjoyed how this card turned out! 

Backstory - I initially created this card for May's Cardz 4 Guyz challenge (embossing folder). I did the vellum part first, then colored in the fern, and then totally forgot that it was supposed to be a masculine card and went ahead added the piece of DSP that floral images and to finish added flowers and butterfly as well as a sentiment stamped in Berry Burst, Oops, but glad I can use this with Alphabet Challenge!
